Abstract: In the present study, solid particle erosion behaviour on copper – fly ash composite is studied. Composite with addition of 2.5 (wt.%) fly ash as reinforcement is prepared through powder metallurgy(P/M) technique. Solid particle erosion studies were carried out by varying the input parameters such as erodent velocity and erosion time. The results revealed that addition of fly ash reduced the resistance to erosion.

Keywords: Copper, Erosion, Fly ash.
